Keep the Managers Clean.


The more highbrcd and spirited the
horse the more dainty he will DO about
his feed, and the greater care must be
taken to keep feed-boxcs and managers
free from filth. Almost AIRY scrub
would, however, refuse to eat out OF
managers ms they often are left with
portions of the unconsumed hay or
grain TO be run over and soiled by
fowls while the horse is away at work.
This is too common condition Of
many farmers stables Mt this season,
when increasing warmth dulls the APP
petite and makes soiled food doubly
offensive by its decay. Many hard
worked horse gets of his feed, us II is
said, and grows poor from this cause
alone. More care should be taken to
feed only what will be eaten clean,
whether of hay, meal or grain. If any
remains when the horse is taken out in
the morning to work it should be re-
moved from the fccd-boX and given to
some other animal that will cat it out

lish. This caused him to relax his death
like grip on hor throat, and she informed
him that she was n white girl and cap
tive. Wctzcl decided TO tako her back
with him. Asccrtaining that the old
squaw was quite dead, they started for
Mt. Pleasant, but had hardly reached it's
base when series of frightful whoops
and yclls broke tho summer silence.
This indicated that tho body of
the squaw had been found and that the
track of the white man's foot had been
discovered. Wotzcl aud the girl climbed
the mount with all possible speed, and
soon joined haywood. A council was
held, There were only two or thrcc points
of ascent to the prccipitous hill, and 1t was
decided to guard them, and trust to Prov
idcnco for the rest,
The night was advancing and the girl
told the scouts that the Indians would
probably make no attack while II was
dark. Tho means OF defense Mt hand were
two rifles and enough ammunition to last
several days. The greatest source of anx
icty arose from the fact of the smallncss
of the supply of food and water.
The Indians surrounded tho hill that
night and kept up horrid din for several
hours, but did not make n direct attack.
Tho three whitc people on the lonely
mountain got no sleep, and they saw tho
great sun of August rise with apprchcn-
sion, for they knew that it would soon be
followed by the Indians.

THE CURING OF HAY.
A Task Which Calls for Considerable
Thoughtfulncss and Work.


The time of cutting determined, the
next step is the curing. In time of
fair weather, this is not difficult. Grass,
or any of the clovers, cut as soon as
the dew is off, will soon wilt, and be
ready for raking into windrows, and if
need be, rolling into cocks. 1t is now
found that it is not necessary to get
hay rs dry rs was once thought to be,
and perhaps was, with the open barns
then used. With tight barns, hay may
be put in quite green, if thoroughly
wilted, and take no considerable dam
age in the NOW. Even the modern
hay-tcddcr is beginning to be thought
a superlluous article, rs very little stir
ring ordinarily is now found necessary.
Too much exposure TO the sun is injur-
ious. 1t is better to cure hay more in
the windrow or in the cock, and not
allow it to be so burnt and dried by the
sun and hot air as TO cause the leaves
to crumble, rs | have seen them do in
my younger days. There is not only
waste from this source, but n good
deal of the goodness in some form ap-
pears to be dissipated. A certain
amount of moisture is advantageous,
and makes the hay more digestiblc.
1t has long been well known that herbs
dried in the shade are much preferable
to those dried in the sun. Drying in
shade is equally advantageous TO hay.
This end is in n measure secured by
early putting the hay into windrows or
cocks, Rhich may be thrown open and
exposed to the air, as occasion may re-
quire. Great care should be taken not
to expose the partly cured hay to the
bleaching effects of dew, or the wash
ing of rain, which rapidly deteriorates
the quality. Hence, in fair weather,
the windrow should be turned over mt
night, so us to expose the greencr por-
ton to tho dew, and in threatening
weather the hay should be put into
cocks, and caps be provided to cover
them in case of rain. This is little
expense and trouble, but not to such
an extent that the saving in the quality
of the hay is not n sufficient recon-
pense. So much depends on quality
that nothing should be omitted which
will tend to preserve it. A NOW of
hay lacking in quality is IL fraud on
both the stock and their owner, for it
is not only less rclishablc, but contains
less nutrimcnt in n given bulk or
weight, besides being less digestible;
and the effects of using such hay are
iurc to cause n slower growth and de-
velopmcnt, if not to check them alto
gethcr, and "ausc dctcrioration-all of
which lessons future cash receipts. In
ferior hay requires more grain feed, rs
however freely fed, the stock can hard
ly be expected TO consume enough
more in quantity TO make up for the
loss in quality. If an additional
amount should be consumed, it would
produce too great mechanical disten-
sion of the stomachs and intcstincs, and
ovcrtax the digestive organs. Hence,
too much attention can not be paid to
the quality and condition of fodder,
and in all cases of inferiority of these
there should be n proportionatcly heavy
rain feeding, Prairie Farmer.

were well nigh exhausted, but they re-
solved to die of starvation rather than sur
render to the Indians. To add more to the
alarm of the scouts, they discovered
shortly after daylight that the girl had
disappeared, and the fear that she had
gone back to the Indians to report their
| hclplcssness seized them.
AS the morning wore on they were sur
priscd that the Indians made no attack.

watch was kept lest some secret approach

On the eastern side of the mount was n

The morning had nearly passed when
Wct2cl, from his hiding-placc above the
stony place of ascent, saw a big Wyandot
creeping carefully along the base of the
cliff below him. At last he climbed to a
little ledge above his head, and stopped
for moment to gain his breath before at
tempting to go higher. That moment was
his last A rifle shot was heard from be-
low, and the soul of the Indian was re-
leased and free to go higher or lower as
the case may be. The Indian had no sooner
fallen than another took his place. Again
the mysterious rifle spoke out, and another
Indian was sent to the happy hunting
ground. a third Indian popped up on the
fatal ledge, and third time that rifle

Wetzcl and his companion held n consul

discussed their chances of escape. The
descent they knew TO he dangerous, be-
cause the way was narrow and the base of
the hill well surrounded by Indians. But
hunger and thirst were sorcly pressing
them, and they had confidence that their
light footedncss and strength would take
them through the savage ranks.
While they were talking the matter over
there was n slight rustic, as bya wind

They at once addressed some questions to
the mysterious visitor, but there came no
answer to their words. They searched
the bushes for some time, but found that
they were alone.
What could it meant They could not
understand the mysterious visitor. But
the circumstance gave them courage, as
the food did strength.
